好吧7门作业对于中国大学生来说根本算不了什么-w-
The title is not a reference to 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors. No, it’s not! Uh-uh! Nope!

So for some slackitude reasons, I had 6 assignments piled up, all due on the week of Feburary 1st or the Monday immediately after. (Actually 7, as I forgot to ask for one professor’s web site.) Since there is an anime con in the weekend, my plan was to complete everything during the weekdays, for there won’t be any time to do them during the weekend, and undone homework would be a really bad thing to have at a con.

During the week, I handed in a web client and suh-vuh, a demo of a ball bouncing in a dish, a token ring simulator (kinda) and an artificial stupidity. 2 Java classes, one C++ project, one C file, and the odd one Python spaghetti (glad that semicolon does nothing in Python), one missed class (just… one… more… compile…), and everything’s finally done… on Saturday lunchtime. The panels I wanted to go are all finished. Oh well, better slow than missed bugs, I suppose.

This is the second time attending GAnime, so for some slackitude reasons, I didn’t register beforehand, and paid admission on the spot instead. Because didn’t had furries together like last time, and my camera also disappeared, it was relatively less interesting.

The location has been renovated, it feels very modern this year (post-modern? post-post-modern?); but for some reason the windows to the atrium have been covered with drawings by children. Frankly, not harmonious. Of course, between the busy conference center up here and the empty shopping center down there, it is a big contrast. But I still feel it makes the place friendlier if you can see other attendees (especially in the case of anime con, cosplayers) eating.

The games room were cleaned out very early on Sunday, save record for Kingdom Hearts II indicates playtime of 6 hours. Maybe I should have gone to panels instead. Where was manga library last year, was a screening room this year, the only English one.

Conclusion: No matter if it’s an anime con or a furry con, going alone is not very interesting.

It’s as if I was playing Taiko no Tatsujin in Shanghai just yesterday, but February has already swiftly arrived. There was an anime con on the other side of the river, decided to take a look on a whim. On the way there… some critters boarded the route 8 bus. “Furries? … Wha… Zets?!”

Ended up taking pics after fursuiters for the whole two days, didn’t actually went to see manga showings, panels or masquerade (was hurrying to 774fox’s birthday party, but only things I did there were to sleep play games + fighting for the loudspeakers). But 170 (usable) pictures were taken, quite a lot!

Sio, the blue folf, is a very cute girl, and even more so when wearing her fursuit~ too bad she already has a boyfriend. His fursuit is made by Sio too, too bad it doesn’t look like a tiger much. A great couple. Basically Kaku was following the pair for the whole weekend like a lamppost / photographer. (And everyone said I took great pictures! Really? ^^||) A lot of cosers as well, but I bacially picked those from my fave works… Especially I borrowed the hat of .hack//GU version of Kite, although cosplay is more about effect and less about comfort, but the hat is just so~ comfortable, too bad didn’t took a picture of it… (But he said the hat was too small and won’t fit after donning the wig) Also met a fursuiter named Fufu who were coming from Montreal

总之虽然有些遗憾，可是也很高兴。最后买了个铃铛回来，喵呼呼～
